Villas-Boas: 'With Adebayor, Defoe and Kane coming through I have enough options but in football you just never know.'


May as well get your Damiao 9 shirts now.
 
My lad just txtd that a fee has been agreed for Leandro. Anyone seen it, or is it just Twitter rubbish again?
 
Moses makes sense as he's home grown. They've only got Turnbull, Terry, Cahill, Cole, Lampard, Sturridge and Bertrand.

Even if they didn't have those they'd find a way around the rules. Money can generally do that. I don't doubt Moses's quality but as said, there'll be some tinkled off Chelsea players by the end of the season.

They only registered 23 players last season because they lacked home grown ones.
 
We aren't going to be spending £20m - £30m on anyone. That's why signing LD is an absurd notion. I can see us spending maybe £15m on a single player with then a few million add-ons but not more than that up front. That's why we've given up on Moutinho, havent been able to sign a big name CF for years, have spent 2 years dingdonging around with Leandro etc etc

Let's speak again in 8 days

There is nothing to suggest we have given up on Moutinho. It has always been reported we would move for him once the Modric deal was done, from what I see nothing has changed.

Aside from which the market has changed dramatically, in cases it really does take that sort of money to get certain players you need.

I believe in the case of receiving Modric money we could well go for a £25m player
 
It's funny to think that people think we've stopped moving for certain players just because the media says so. Us, as regular fans, know fudge all about the inner workings of the club - so until the transfer window is over, anything can happen.

If you think we won't break our transfer window then you're an idiot. It may be unlikely, but that does not mean to say that it's impossible.
 
Chelsea sign Moses. That's funny because Man United have Judas, Arsenal want Jesus and Liverpool are stuck with Adam and a donkey.
 
Crikey I've just come to this thread to read 5 or 6 pages of exciting news... and it's just circular arguments and departedness.

How many times can you guys discuss Adebayor/ACN/Togo/qualifying - 433/Ade/Leandro - AVB/Press Conference/Truth/Lies - VdV/Sigg - Willian/Lennon - before you go mad?
 
We might have to pay a premium to replace our best player - a price worth paying given that it could make or break our season.

Yep for you and me it's a price worth paying. I don't think Levy agrees with that which is why I don't see us paying £20m up front for anyone
